No matter how you feel about the ASG, no Metros? That's weak.

Good.  We won't have any players get injured in it this year.

The only other time was 2009, when JPA was an "inactive" all-star. Still chance for an "inactive" one this year...

Good motivation going forward in the 2nd half.

I keep reading that it's good, it's good that they won't get injured but getting named to the All Star team gives the players bonuses, I'm sure the players aren't happy

We should take this game seriously.

This idiotic selection of Gerrard and Lampard, taking two spots away from deserving players, reminds me of back in 2010, when Garber wanted to include Titi.

 

Titi declined, because he felt it wasn't fair.

 

Titi is the best.

With the way Lampard is he might not ever play this season at all. Hes had three different advertised debuts already.

How much do you want to be that if does play, he gets injured...that would be so poetic justice.

This just in: even though some players are quality, they aren't marketable.

Drew Moor isn't marketable either, he made the game. BWP scored the most goals in the league last year, AND scored a golazo in last year's ASG.

If you can't market that- it's because you're retarded.

I'm glad they don't have to play in that clown show. Extra days off to rest & focus on cup & league. Go get em.

Sitting around an Austrian conference room table tomorrow, someone's getting canned for not having a RB logo on the field vs Tottenham.  

Fingers crossed that it's DGP or Curtis.

I actually dont think any of our players are really deserving of a nod. Its been a weird first half of the year and any positive play has come as a result of a combined overall teamwork rather than one outstanding player. If you really want to be serious about it, you can name 1 or 2 players in each position who are having a better year than any of our guys. BWPs exceptional 2014 is the only thing you can say anyone one of our players did to get themselves above and beyond what is needed to be an All Star. Unfortunately for him many people forgot what he did and his slow start this year hasn't helped him.

 

Its going to be much harder for players to get into this game with so many new teams coming into the league and only 1 All-Star squad. Now that the league is starting to push past 20 teams it might be nice to go back to the East-West format so more players get a chance to play. It was way more fun for me to watch those games anyways than playing some random Euro club that half asses it on preseason tour. But I guess MLS thinks Tottenham is somehow some Media superpower thats going to attract fans and media?  :)+
